I read something the other day about how we repeat what we know. It is so very common for those with trauma to look at patterns and repeat the mistakes of the past. When you fall in love with someone, you worry you are alone in that, especially if you have had very little love shown you growing up.
We may also see patterns in the types of people we gravitate toward, the different personality types that turn us on. But that does not mean each person we are with is like the others. What ended one relationship does not have to end another.
We owe it to ourselves to break these patterns so we can be happy.
